lyrics

Throw it out
It's lost its shape
In need of repair
No time for escape
But leave no doubt
There's a light to be seen
It's coming over the hill
Somebody screamed

We never knew
And we still don't; is it true?
Wish I were you
Somebody screamed, ‘I wish I were you’

So hear me out
Don't mean to sound cute
But sometimes yer drunk, boy
And sometimes you puke
But leave no doubt
There's a light to be seen
It's coming over the hill
Somebody screamed

We never knew
And we still don't; is it true?
Wish I were you
Somebody scream, ‘I wish I were you’
If we do nothing, then there's nothing left to do
Wish I were you
Somebody scream ‘I wish I were you’

Somebody scream, ‘In my time of lying’

You're talking to a ghost
The ghosts are all around
They're everywhere you look
The ghosts they write the book
Somebody screamed, "You're talking to a ghost, who says ‘I wish I were you’"
Cause then I'd get back
